I am going to ignore any connection between Donne and Marvell's Carpe Diem poems for this post. Today's class returned to Donne and four of his songs, the poetry of love, relationships, satire, and odd conceits. Our poems today, "The Flea," "The Good Morrow," "Woman's Constancy," and "The Anniversary," feature varying personas to reflect the character of Donne's particular speaker. For tomorrow's installment, we will begin our next 10 vocabulary words, complete a Lit Device Quest (some toolbox usage will be utilized), finish Donne's "Songs," and most likely deal with his Sonnets and some rangefinders. Make sure you close read your assigned Donne poem and "The Paradox."
P.S. The New Historicist Essay. The New Historicist Essay. The New Historicist Essay.
